I'm partial to February simply because my birthday is then. (I was born on the same day, month and year as the actress Jennifer Jason Leigh.) When I was little, there was a hit song "The Age of Aquarius" from the hippie musical Hair. So I associated the Aquarius sign with hippies, who rather scared me. Imagine my surprise when one day I looked up my astrological sign and found out it was Aquarius!
People talk about the February blues, but they don't seem to affect me that much. I've always been a bit of an indoor person myself, so winters don't get to me. I really enjoyed snow when I was young. Today I'm in the city and don't encounter as much of it as I did back then.
February is also the month of Valentine's Day, which never really interested me. Even today I'm not much of a romantic type. My idea of something romantic is fighting for Tibet's liberation.
